What Causes Indentation In Skull?
I noticed a small indent in my skull, right inside my hairline on the right hand side above my eye. It doesn t cause pain to touch it but I can feel a bit of pressure, no headaches or dizziness. I have read many posts of people with the same thing but no answers as to what it could be. Making me nervous....

Welcome to HCM
I have read and understood your query and appreciate your health concern.
Ist are you sure,you have not this indentation right from the start or this is just a new thing?
if you think it is a new appearance,do u remember any head trauma etc?
Is thus just an indentation with no colour change on the scalp and no other thing to mention?
If the answer is No,then you dont need to worry.But to be on safe side,get an Xray skull done,if no erosion ir crack is seen,you are good to go
I hope this was helpful
